I Will Live as a Villain the Magical Girl Is Obsessed With

21 – 8. Memories stuck deep like thorns -2

“…Are you serious?”

No, Noah is like her brother, so she doesn’t think it’s strange.

Of course, even though she is a high school student and her body has grown a bit more and she now has the appearance of a woman, her younger brother is still her younger brother.

Such a shameless act of lying in the same bed…

“I’m really sick.”

Gurgling.

Noah begins to cry.

If she was aiming for something, she would just be a fox.

But that can’t be possible. Because Noah is a child who doesn’t have that kind of skill.

Strangely, whenever she sees Noah, her heart weakens. Is she doing this because she remembers the old days when she was lonely?

“…Ugh.”

I don’t know either.

I turned off the light and laid down on the bed.

Noah, who saw me like that, turned his head and mumbled.

“No…I…Didn’t mean to lie down…That…”

“Really? Then will it happen?”

“No…I think you can just stay.”

It was like this and then like that.

It’s really difficult to understand girls’ feelings.

‘…It’s narrow.’

My small bed was too narrow for two people to sleep on. So naturally, we had no choice but to bring our bodies close together.

Sigh. Noah is startled when their hands brush against each other.

“Ugh!?”

“Oh my gosh, be careful.”

Because of that, he held Noah, who was likely to fall, as if he were holding him, and he was even more surprised.

“Ugh…Ah…Ah?”

No, it looks like it’s broken.

This really can’t be helped.

I extended her arm to the side and supported Noah’s head. It was the commonly known arm-pillow posture.

“Uncle… Mr.?”

“I’ll lend you my arm, so lie down and get some rest.”

“…Yes.”

Noah must have liked this posture and stayed still for a while. Perhaps because the lights were off, I was able to focus on every single sound of his breathing.

Then, as if she suddenly had an idea, she opened her mouth.

“…Have you never done anything like that?”

“What?”

“He was a really close person…But he betrayed me.”

“…Yes.”

“Who are you?”

“The first person my uncle liked in his life.”

After remaining silent for a moment, Noah opened her mouth.

“Can I…Maybe I ask you something?”

“Are you asking me to tell you something without answering?”

“…I’ll tell you too.”

Noah offered me a deal. If I tell you my past, he will tell me his past.

It was an offer with no loss.

It’s not that great of a story anyway.

I told the exact same story I had told Kkomul in the past.

“I didn’t have parents. I was always alone and lonely.”

“…”

“In the meantime, I met a friend. She was a girl, and she treated me very well.”

I frowned slightly. It was because I remembered that damn b*tch’s smiling face.

To borrow Noah’s expression, this guy was a thorn to me.

As deeply as it went into his heart, the thorn remained painful.

I took a breath and continued speaking.

“That became my first love…And my first relationship. I only found out later when I saw him hanging out with someone else.”

I just.

“He was just one of many.”

“…Uncle, are you okay?”

“Okay. I’ve almost forgotten everything now.”

“Then me too…”

Noah looked like she was about to say something, but she quickly shut her mouth. She felt hesitant.

I lightly pinched his cheek and made a laughing sound.

“Actually, it’s hard to completely forget.”

“Yes?”

“No matter what, it’s memorable. Whether it’s in a good or bad way.”

I heard the sound of someone turning towards me.

It looks like he is trying to focus more on what I am saying.

“What about you? That kid named Lee Tae-hwa.”

“…I don’t know. I definitely hate him a lot…He hurt me…”

“It’s not easy to forget, right?”

“…Yes, I feel really stupid.”

Noah’s small body came into my arms.

“Mister.”

“Huh?”

“Can I stay like this for a little while?”

“Of course.”

I waited for a while for the sound of Noah’s heart to continue pounding.

“That…It happened when I was in my second year of middle school.”

Noah started talking.

Noah had one precious friend.

Her friend’s name is Lee Tae-hwa. She was an unusual girl with eyes as blue as the sky and sparkling like gold.

The two first met at a local children’s center.

A child who only has one father. On one hand, she is a child whose parents are both busy.

The two spent a long time together and soon became inseparable friends.

“Noah!”

“Why? Taehwa?”

“Let’s continue to be friends in the future!”

“Yes! Good!”

A promise from my childhood that I made with my little finger. That promise was broken after the girls entered their second year of middle school.

‘Taehwa…Are you okay?’

Noah was worried about Taehwa.

Her heart continued to feel uneasy. Ever since Tae-hwa became a member of the Seondo club, she has been receiving more and more disparaging comments.

He works too hard and is rigid. As a result, there were times when she was outright ostracized.

Look at that.

“Hey, are you ready?”

“f*ck you Carrot. Taehwa Lee is years behind.”

“I asked you to look at it, so why bother bragging about it, b*tch?”

Those guys who talk as if they are going to kill Taehwa at any moment.

They are all delinquent children who were caught and punished by Taehwa.

I can’t believe people like that are trying to harass Taehwa.

This cannot be done.

Noah swallowed her saliva and told her teacher about it without the slightest hesitation.

Their disgusting plan failed, but they soon found another target.

“Hey, Nanoa.”

“…Why?”

“Why? Ha, look at the expression on this b*tch’s face doesn’t change at all. Is something bothering you?”

“…I don’t have one.”

The target was Noah.

It was because someone had heard Noah talking about themselves.

A female student grabbed Noah by the hair.

Nevertheless, Noah did not show any sign and maintained her expressionless expression.

“Nothing!”

“…Nothing.”

As she gets angry all the time, her Noah just smiles once.

“It’s natural for people who see trash to clean it up.”

“This!”

Wow!

Noah fell to the floor after being hit in the face.

Noah braced herself as she saw the gang slowly approaching.

No matter what happens, I won’t show any signs of pain. The moment I made up my mind.

“Hey!! What are you guys doing there!”

Taehwa’s voice was heard.

Taehwa led other leading members and raided the scene.

Leading members chasing after the gang.

Only Taehwa looked at Noah, who had fallen to the floor.

“Thank you… Taehwa.”

My legs were shaking.

“Ehehehe…I acted like a brat for no reason.”

A tearful expression appeared on Noah’s face as he spat out the following words.

Her scared inner feelings were revealed through her expression, and her heart pounded.

The thought that comes to mind is that Taehwa would quickly hold her hand.

But what came back was a very cold voice.

“…Who asked you to help?”

“Taehwa?”

“You stepped forward for no reason. Things got even more complicated…Like a fool.”

“Taehwa…Why are you talking like that? I’m trying to help you-“

“So! I didn’t even say a word to ask for help, so why did you do that? Why!”

Thump-.

Noah felt the pain that pierced her heart.

There was some hesitation in Taehwa’s expression, but it soon turned into determination.

“…Don’t interfere for no reason.”

“Taehwa…”

“I feel like a fool.”

Thorn.

Noah felt like a thorn had been stabbed in her heart. The name of the thorn was memories of Taehwa.

Joy, happiness, pleasure. Things like that.

They have now become sharp thorns that bother Noah.

“…Then.”

“Huh?”

“You can just turn it off.”

“…That’s…”

“Just take care of it. I won’t worry about it anymore.”

It was a cold voice that even surprised me.

I couldn’t believe it. She couldn’t believe she would say something like this to her precious friend.

Her thick tears flowed down Noah’s cheeks.

“…I’ll go.”

+++++

“I was just…Helping…”

Noah continued speaking in tears.

“Why was Taehwa so angry…? It would be easier if I knew the reason…”

She felt a little lost.

Maybe he felt something when he saw Noah suffering.

You’ll have to ask yourself that question, though.

“…Okay.”

“What…?”

“I’ll help you.”

Noah wiped her tears after hearing my words.

“Really?”

“Yes. I hope we can reconcile, but if we can’t… I should at least relieve some of the burden on my heart.”

Noah is smiling now.

“Thank goodness.”

“Because I helped you?”

“Yes. My heart has been so heavy all this time. Because of this, I am worried about other things…”

“Something else?”

“Ah! No, no!”

Noah, who was making sounds of confusion, came closer to me again.

“Mister, please use your weak hand.”

“Where does it hurt?”

“Chest. If possible, clockwise.”

“I’m going to jail, you bastard.”

And Noah laughed.

It was a helpless sound of laughter.

I struck a weak blow at his forehead.

“I told you not to act bright for no reason.”

“Woo~ A devil who hits a girl.”

“Are you making fun of people?”

“A little bit.”

Really.

I stroked the head of the guy who was hesitating.

“I’ll do something for you, okay?”

“…Yes…”

“You seem sleepy, go to sleep quickly.”

“Good night…Good night…”

Noah falls asleep softly. After watching him for a while, I got up and-

‘Why is this child so strong?’

…I couldn’t lose.

Even though she is a magical girl, she is pushed around by a high school girl.

From noble mtl dot com

Is it true that you need three tanks to deal with three high school girls?

I became Noah’s dakimakura without moving.

“…It’s okay if you like it.”

“hehehe…”

I left Noah talking in his sleep and organized my plan.

Listen to both sides. Because it is the basic skill of an adult to stop children from fighting.

And time passed and the next day arrived.

I was sitting in a cafe, killing time.

Until a girl approached me.

It was Lee Tae-hwa. When I saw him, I greeted him warmly.

“Hello, are you really here?”

“…I heard from my dad. The man who came yesterday was looking for him.”

“That’s right. I have something to tell you.”

“What about Noah? You didn’t come with Noah-“

“Oh my. Are you going to leave the two of you together and watch that happen again?”

“That…Thing…”

“Calm down and order something to drink. It’s a cafe. It’s a nuisance if you don’t get one drink per person.”

Taehwa Lee sat down making a noise.

Just as he was deciding on drinks and I was about to pay.

“I’ll buy what’s mine.”

“Really?”

“I don’t like being blindly taken advantage of just because I’m an adult.”

“…You have a concept. Okay, it’s a gift for such a kid.”

I gave a drink as a gift.

The guy’s expression became depressed.

“…Uncle.”

“Huh?”

“I heard you’re Noah’s boyfriend. Is it okay to do this?”

Ah, was that the setting?

“It’s okay, it’s okay. I’m not flirting with you, so what?”

“…”

“I’m giving it to you so you can get along well with Noah.”

“…Then you’ve already lost your money.”

“You have to see it now to find out.”

“Yes?”

“I heard everything from Noah yesterday. What happened to you a long time ago.”

“…You heard.”

“I just told you this yesterday while crying.”

Of course it’s a lie. Noah cried, but she shed tears, that was it.

However, the expression on Lee Tae-hwa’s face, who had no way of knowing that fact, turned bitter.

“…It’s been that way since ancient times.”

“Since long ago?”

“Yes. Even if he says something in front of me and gets angry, when he turns around, he gets very distressed. He’s the type of person who isn’t good at criticizing others.”

Actually, I liked that kind of story.

“What I want to know is why you did that.”

“…Is this what it is? Helping me reconcile with Noah?”

I nodded.

Lee Tae-hwa, who had been thinking for a while, soon opened her mouth.

So, when Lee Tae-hwa was about to begin her own story in earnest.

Beep-

Tiririri…Tiririri…Click!

I made a call using the cell phone in my pocket.

So that someone can hear this conversation.
